The Mayan Calendar didn't take into account leap years.




Which means absolutely nothing since their calendar was very accurate and leap years are a construct of the calendar that WE use which is a completely different calendar. What matters is that the guys converting the Mayan dates into Julian dates did it right.

Sheesh.



Which they didn't. :D

I think the accuracy of the conversion is under debate, yes, but leap years has nothing to do with it.

Just so long as Packet 3 doesnt wait until the next Leap Year, I will be happy.

But any time now would be nice

I predict next packet will be available by October 24th. As per today's October In The Works, the next season of D&D Encounters uses D&D Next, and the Session 0, "Character Creation" is on the 24th. 
EDIT - *Derp*, from reading the In the Works about next Encounters season, I thought they were talking about moving to Next, but it looks like I was misinterpreting and they're trying to get aspect of 5e play in a 4e game environment, mini adventures each week with exploration, combat, and interaction. I doubt they'll be able to succeed in fitting enough into an Encounters session.

Sooner would be better, that way if they stay on the two month track we could get something prior to the winter holiday.  (meaning packet 4 mid december)
